Values entered in these boxes correspond to the display range required. The setting also requires [Input low] and [Input high] in the limits section. See Example 2. Dynamic scales: Set the [Engineering low] and [Engineering high] by a designated register. See Example 4. Macro subroutine (Not available for cmt Series) The value read from or written to the register can be computed by macro subroutines selected in [Read conversion] and [Write conversion]. The macro subroutines should be diefined in Macro Function Library. To use this feature, see The rule of using Macro subroutine. Display lower and upper limits If selected, when entering a value, the range is displayed near the object. Display previous value If selected, when entering a value, the value before update is displayed near the object. This section allows users to apply display limits to the values held in the input register. The color when the register value is outside limits can be set. Direct Sets the limits by entering values in [Input low] and [Input high]. If the value entered is outside the limits, the value in the register cannot be changed. Dynamic limits Set the limits by a designated register, see Example 5. Low limit When the value in the register is outside the [Low limit], display digits by the color set. High limit When the value in the register is outside the [High limit], display digits by the color set. Blink When the value in the register is outside either limit, the digits flash.

38 13-38 where, ratio = ([Engineering high] - [Engineering low]) / ([PLC high] - [PLC low]) As shown below, the original data is 15, after conversion, 40 will be displayed. Example 3 If the numeric format selected is not Float and decimal point is used, the decimal place of the converted result will not be adjusted automatically, please adjust [Engineering high] to correctly place the decimal point of the result gained in [Interpolation] mode. Please see the illustration below. 1. Create two Numeric Input objects, set [Right of decimal Pt.] to 1 and select [Interpolation] method for one of the objects as shown in the following figure. 2. Enter value 123, the object set to [Interpolation] displays instead of To move the decimal point one place to the left, adjust [Engineering high] as shown in the following figure.

40 13-40 Example 6 The following demonstrates how to use [Macro subroutine] for scaling when configuring Numeric Input object. The following two macros are used, one for [Read conversion] and one for [Write conversion]. 1. Create two Numeric Input objects: NE_0 and NE_1 and use the same control address. Select [Macro subroutine] for NE_1. 2. Enter 0 in NE_0 then NE_1 will execute [Read conversion]. The value gained will be Enter 80 in NE_1, [Write conversion] is executed and the value gained will be 70. NE_0 displays 70.

41 13-41 Note If executing [Read conversion] and [Write conversion] by the same numeric object, the value entered in this object is computed by the Macro subroutine of [Write conversion] first, and then the result is computed by the Macro subroutine of [Read conversion]. In Example 5, if the subroutine of [Write conversion] is set to b=a-20, then entering 80 in NE_1 will get 60 after [Write conversion] and then the object displays 70 after [Read conversion].

46 Indirect Window Overview Indirect Window object opens the pop-up window assigned by a designated word register. There are two ways to use Indirect Window object: The first is to use the profile of Indirect Window object, and let the pop-up window be resized and displayed in the defined profile; the second is to automatically resize the window according to the size of the pop-up window to be displayed. To close the pop-up window, assign 0 to the designated word register. The difference between Direct Window and Indirect Window is that Direct Window is controlled by a bit register, while Indirect Window is controlled by a word register Configuration Click the Indirect Window icon on the toolbar to open the object property dialog box. Set up the properties, press OK button, and a new Indirect Window object will be created. General Tab cmt Series emt, ie, XE, mtv Series

47 13-47 Setting Read address Attribute Description Click [Setting] to select the [PLC name], [Address], [Device type], [System tag], [Index register] of the word device that controls the pop-up window. Users can also set address in [General] tab while adding a new object. Style Set the display style of the pop-up window. There are two styles: No title bar The pop-up window has no title bar and cannot be dragged. With title bar The pop-up window has a title bar that can be dragged to move the window. Use window no. offset Auto. adjust window size Sets the offset of the window number for selecting the pop-up window. The window number of the pop-up window is calculated by the value in the word register added to the offset. For example, assume the value in the register is 20 and offset is 5, the pop-up window number will be 25. Automatically resize the Indirect Window and align the pop-up window to the preset region. Alignment Sets a reference point of the pop-up window from one of the five positions on the screen. For example, if the lower-right region is selected, the lower-right corner of the pop-up window is aligned to the lower-right region of the Indirect Window. See Example 1. Example 1 Here is an example of using Indirect Window. The setting is shown in the following figure, set the address to LW-0 which assigns the window number. Create window no. 11 and 12 first. 1. Create an Indirect Window object, set address to LW-0, and select [Auto. adjust window size].

48 Select the region where the window is to be displayed. 3. Enter value 11 in LW-0, the pop-up window displayed is window no Enter value 12 in LW-0, the pop-up window displayed is window no Enter value 0 in LW-0, the pop-up window is closed. To close the pop-up window, apart from entering 0 in the designated word register, another way is to place a Function Key object in the pop-up window, and set the key to [Close window]. Note At most 24 windows can be displayed simultaneously at run time. The system does not allow opening the same window with two Direct (or Indirect) windows in one base window. If the pop up window has monopoly property enabled, then when the window pops up, all background windows may not be operated until the monopolizing window has been closed.

49 Direct Window Overview Direct Window object defines the position and size of a pop-up window location on a window. When the content of the bit register is changed, the window will pop up at the predefined location. The display area for the pop-up window is limited by the size of predefined location. Restoring the value of the bit register closes the pop-up window. The difference between the Direct Window and the Indirect Window is that Direct Window object has a predefined window number, and is controlled by a bit register, while Indirect window is controlled by a word register, and the value of the word register determines the window displayed Configuration Click the Direct Window icon on the toolbar to open a Direct Window object property dialog box. Set up the properties, press OK button, and a new Direct Window object will be created. General Tab cmt Series emt, ie, XE, mtv Series

If the state of LB-10 turns to ON, window no. 35 will pop up; if the state of LB-10 turns to OFF, window no. 35 will be closed, as shown in the following figure.

51 13-51 Note A screen can simultaneously display up to 24 pop-up windows including System Message Window, Direct Window and Indirect Window. The system does not allow opening the same window with two Direct (or Indirect) Windows in one base window. If the pop up window has monopoly property enabled, then when the window pops up, all background windows may not be operated until the monopolizing window has been closed.

52 Moving Shape Overview Moving Shape object defines the states and moving distance of an object. The state and the location of the object depend on consecutive registers Configuration Click the Moving Shape icon on the toolbar to create a Moving Shape object. Set up the properties, press OK button, and a new Moving Shape object will be created. General Tab Setting Read address Description Click [Setting] to configure the [PLC name], [Device type], [Address], [System tag], or [Index register] of the word devices that control the display of object s state and moving distance. Users can

53 13-53 also set the address in [General] tab while adding a new object. Attribute Select the object s movement mode and range. See Illustration of Modes in the following part. Display ratio The size of shape in different states can be set individually as shown in the following figure. Limit address The object s moving range can be set by adjusting the data in the designated register, see Example 1. Example 1 Supposed that the object s moving range is limited by register LW-n, the addresses in the following table are used to limit the moving range. Data format 16-bit 32-bit [Min. X] address LW-n LW-n [Max. X] address LW-n+1 LW-n+2 [Min. Y] address LW-n+2 LW-n+4 [Mas. Y] address LW-n+3 LW-n Illustration of Modes Available modes are: (Assume Read Address is LW-n) X axis only The object is only allowed to move along the X-axis. The moving distance ranges from [Min. X] to [Max. X]. Data format 16-bit 32-bit Object state LW-n LW-n Moving distance on X-axis LW-n+1 LW-n+2 Y axis only The object is only allowed to move along the Y-axis. The moving distance ranges from [Min. Y] to [Max. Y].

54 13-54 Data format 16-bit 32-bit Object state LW-n LW-n Moving distance on Y-axis LW-n+1 LW-n+2 X & Y axis The object is allowed to move along the X-axis and Y-axis. The moving range in X and Y directions is defined by [Min. X], [Max. X] and [Min. Y], [Max. Y] respectively. Data format 16-bit 32-bit Object state LW-n LW-n Moving distance on X-axis LW-n+1 LW-n+2 Moving distance on Y-axis LW-n+2 LW-n+4 For example, if the object s read address is LW-100 and the data format is [16-bit Unsigned], LW-100 is used to control the object s state, LW-101 is used to control the object s moving distance on the X-axis, and LW-102 is used to control the object s moving distance on the Y-axis. The following figure shows that the object s read address is LW-100 and initial position is (100, 50). To move the object to the position (160,180) and change its state to State 2, assign 2 to LW-100, = 60 to LW-101, = 130 to [LW102].

55 13-55 X axis w/ scaling The object moves in X-axis only with scaling. Suppose that the value of the designated register is DATA, the system uses the following equation to calculate the moving distance on the X-axis. [Scaling high]-[scaling low] Displacement=(Data-[Input low]) [Input high]-[input low] Data format 16-bit 32-bit Object state LW-n LW-n Moving distance on X-axis LW-n+1 LW-n+2 Y axis w/ scaling The object is for Y axis movement with scale, and the equation to calculate the moving distance on the Y-axis is the same as the one in [X axis w/ scaling]. Data format 16-bit 32-bit Object state LW-n LW-n Moving distance on Y-axis LW-n+1 LW-n+2 X axis w/ reverse scaling This works in the way as [X axis w/ scaling], but the moving direction is in reverse. Y axis w/ reverse scaling This works in the way as [Y axis w/ scaling], but the moving direction is in reverse.

56 Animation Overview Animation object is defined by a pre-defined point set and states. Animation object will then move to a given point in a given state defined by designated registers. The object state and position depend on current value of two consecutive registers. The first register controls the state of the object and the second register controls the position along the predefined path Configuration Click the Animation icon on the toolbar. First, create the pre-defined path. Move the mouse to each moving position, and click the left button to define positions one by one. When it is done, right click on the screen, set up the properties, press OK button, and a new Animation object will be created. To change the object s attributes, double click on the object to open Animation Object s Properties dialog box.

57 13-57 General Tab Setting Attribute Description No. of states Configure the number of states for this object. Controlled by register Use the designated registers to control the object s state and position. See Example 1. Based upon time interval The object s state and position will change from time to time. *Time interval attributes] is used to set the time interval for states and positions. Position speed: The speed of movement. The unit is 0.1 second. Supposed that [Speed] is set to 10, the object s position will change each second.

58 13-58 Image state change: Determines how state changes, either [Position dependent] or [Time-based]. If [Position dependent] is selected, the object state will change when position changes. If [Time-based] is selected, the object position will change based on [Position speed] and the object state will change based on [Image update time]. Backward cycle: Assumed the object has four positions: position 0, position 1, position 2, and position 3, and [Backward cycle] is not selected. When the object moves to the last position (position 3), the next position will be back to the initial position 0, and repeat. The moving path is shown as follows: position 0 position 1 position 2 position 3 position 0 position 1 position 2 If [Backward cycle] is selected, when the object moves to the last position (position 3), it will move backwards to position 2, position 1 and then the initial position 0, and start over again. The moving path is shown as follows. position 0 position 1 position 2 position 3 position 2 position 1 position 0 Example 1 The object s state and position are determined by the registers, and the addresses must be configured correctly, as in the following table: Data format 16-bit 32-bit Object state LW-n LW-n Object position LW-n+1 LW-n+2 For example, if the designated register is LW-100 and the data format is [16-bit Unsigned], then LW-100 represents object s state, LW-101 represents position. In the picture below, LW-100 = 2, LW-101 = 3, so the object s state is 2 and position is 3.

59 13-59 Profile Tab Setting Shape rectangle size Trajectory Description Set the size of the shape. Set the position of each point on the moving path. Note Since multiple pictures might be used by an [Animation] object, [Set to original dimension] will not return all pictures to the original size.

61 13-61 Outline Tab Setting Attribute Description Type Choose either [Normal] or [Offset]. If [Offset] is selected, an original value [Origin] must be entered for reference. Direction Determine the bar graph direction. Available options are [Up], [Down], [Right], and [Left]. Zero / Span The percentage of filling can be calculated by the formula, see Example 1. Bar width ratio (%) It is the ratio of bar to object width. The figure below shows two ratios, 100% and 50%.

62 13-62 Bar color/style Set the bar s frame and background color, bar style, and bar color. See the picture below. Target indicator Alarm indicators Dynamic taget/alarm /zero(span) When the register value meets the condition, the color of filled area will change to the target color, see Example 2. If the register value is larger than [High limit], the color of filled area will change to [High color]. If the register value is smaller than [Low limit], the color will change to [Low color]. When [Enable] is selected, the [Low limit] and [High limit] of [Alarm indicator] and the [Target Value] of [Target indicator] will use designated registers, which is shown in their respective fields see Example 3. Example 1 The percentage of filling can be calculated by the following formula: Percentage of filling = Register value [Zero] [Span] [Zero] 100% Assume [Offset] is selected. If (Register value [Zero]) is greater than 0, the bar will fill up from [Origin]. If (Register value Zero) is less than 0, the bar will be drawn below [Origin]. For example, [Origin] is 5, [Span] is 10, and [Zero] is 0. For different value in read address, it will display as below: If the value at read address is 4: If the value at read address is 8:

63 13-63 Example 2 When the register value meets the following condition, the color of filled area will change to the target color. [Target Value] - *Tolerance+ Register value *Target Value+ + *Tolerance+ Assume [Target Value] is 5 and [Tolerance] is 1. As shown below, if the register value is equal to or larger than 4 (=5-1) and equal to or less than 6 (=5+1), the filled area s color of the bar will change to the target color. Example 3 If [Dynamic target/alarm] is enabled, [Low limit] and [High limit] of [Alarm indicator] are defined by designated registers as shown in the following table. Furthermore, if [Dynamic zero/span] is used, [Zero], [Span] and [Origin] will be defined by designated registers. Assume the address is LW-n, the limits are: Data format 16-bit 32-bit Alarm Low Limit LW-n LW-n Alarm High Limit LW-n+1 LW-n+2 Target LW-n+2 LW-n+4 Zero LW-n+3 LW-n+6 Span LW-n+4 LW-n+8 Origin LW-n+5 LW-n+10

73 13-73 Setting Data Sampling Object index Trend type Description Select a Data Sampling object as the source data. Select the mode of data source, either [Real-time] or [History]. Real-time In this mode, the display object shows all sampled data since the HMI started. The maximum number of records that can be sampled is set in [Max.data records] (Real-time mode) of the Data Sampling object. When the sampling data exceed this setting, the earlier data will be deleted.to show older data, use [History] mode. [Hold control]: Suspends the update of Trend Display. However, It does not stop the sampling process of Data Sampling object. History In this mode, the data comes from the history data files stored on HMI.. The history data files are sorted by dates and each is given an index. The system uses [History control] to select the history data files that are created on different dates. The system sorts the history data of sampling data by date; the

74 13-74 Pixel latest file is record 0 (typically the data sampled today), the second latest file is record 1, and so on. If the value of designated register in [History control] is n, the Trend Display object will display data record n. Here is an example to explain [History control]. If the designated register is LW-0, and the sampling data files available are pressure_ dtl, pressure_ dtl, pressure_ dtl, and pressure_ dtl, and it is 2006/12/3 today, based on the value of LW-0, the sampling data file which will be selected by [Trend Display] is shown as follows: Value of LW-0 Selected sampling history data 0 pressure_ dtl 1 pressure_ dtl 2 pressure_ dtl 3 pressure_ dtl If use with Option List object and select data source as [Dates of historical data], the history data will be sorted by date and displayed in Option List object, see Option List.

Showing button: The automatic refresh feature is disabled. When scrolling to the previous data, the automatic refresh feature is disabled, the button is shown. If [Refresh data automatically] check box is selected, when change back to the window, the display is refreshed, ignoring the control buttons. For example, select [Refresh data automatically], and scroll to the previous data, the automatic refresh feature is disabled. In this case, changing to another window and then change back will still refresh the display. If [Refresh data automatically] check box is not selected when building the project, the feature can still be enabled by pressing button on HMI. In this case, the automatic refresh feature is disabled, that is, even when change back to the current window, the display will not be refreshed. When the register is set ON, suspend the update of Trend Display. It does not stop the sampling process of Data Sampling object. This setting is available only in Real-time mode. Use the *Watch line+ function to display a watch line when user touches the Trend Display object. It will also export the sampling data at the position of watch line to the designated word device and use Numeric Display objects to display the results, as shown in the following figure.

76 13-76 Time stamp output [Watch line] can also export sampling data with multiple channels. The system will consecutively write each channel to the specified address and the following addresses, in the same order as in [Data Sampling] object. The address assigned to [Watch line] is the start address, and sampling data for each channel will be exported to the word devices starting from start address. If the data format of each channel is different, the corresponding address of each channel is arranged from the first to the last. If the watch register is LW-300, watch function will export each channel s data to the following addresses: Register Channel Data format LW bit Unsigned (1 word) LW bit Unsigned (2 words) LW bit float (2 words) LW bit Signed (1 word) Time stamp output Suppose the address is set to LW-n, then: If enabled, the system will use the time of the first sampling data as time origin, and write the time stamp of the most recent sampled data (relative to time origin ) to [LW-n+2]. When clicking on the curve, the time stamp of the closest sampled point will be written to [LW-n]. Clear real-time data address (Data Sampling object) will clear the time origin as well. Time stamp is recorded in seconds. Note LW-n and LW-n+2 are both in 32-bit format. LW-n is for both real-time and history mode, whereas LW-n+2 only applies to real-time mode. This function is available upon enabling [relative time mode] in [Trend] tab.

81 13-81 Setting Y scale Description Available only for cmt Series, see Y Scale Usage. Channel Configure each sampling line s format and color. At most 64 Channel visibility control channels could be configured. Dynamic limits Not selected: [Zero] and [Span] are used to set the low limit and high limit of sampling data. If the low limit is 50 and the high limit is 100 for one sampling line, [Zero] and [Span] must be set as [50] and [100], so that all the sampling data can be displayed in the trend display object. Selected The low limit and the high limit are read from the designated word devices, as shown below. When address is LW-n, the register s address: Data Format 16-bit 32-bit Low limit LW-n LW-n High Limit LW-n+1 LW-n+2 For example, if LW-100 is used here, the low limit and the high limit will be read from: Data Format 16-bit 32-bit Low limit LW-100 LW-100 High Limit LW-101 LW-102 A typical usage of this is to zoom in and zoom out of Trend Display. (Not available for cmt Series). See Example 1. If [Enable] is selected, the bits of the assigned word register will be used to show/hide each channel. The first bit controls the first channel, and the second bit controls the second channel, and so on. For example, suppose there are 5 channels and LW-0 is used, channels which will be shown given the states of the control bits are: Channel Control Bit State Displayed 1 LW_bit-000 OFF YES 2 LW_bit-001 ON NO 3 LW_bit-002 ON NO 4 LW_bit-003 OFF YES 5 LW_bit-004 OFF YES Note on using this feature: Each control bits are not reserved for

82 13-82 the channel. If a particular channel is not displayed, the control bit is assigned to the next displayed channel. For example, if the third channel of the 5 channels is not displayed, only 4 channels will be displayed in Trend Display, and the used control bits will only be: LW_bit-000~003. Example 1 The example explains how to zoom in or zoom out Trend Display. The feature described is not available for cmt Series. In Channel tab select [Dynamic limits] check box. If the [Address] is set to LW-n, then LW-n controls the low limit where LW-n+1 controls the high limit. Set [Address] to LW-0 and create two Numeric Input objects for entering the low / high limit. The address that controls the low limit is LW-0; the address that controls the high limit is LW-1. Let s suppose the data is between 0 and 30; set the [Low limit] to 0 and the [High limit] to 30, the trend curve is displayed as shown in the following figure. To zoom out the Trend Display, enter a value greater than 30 in [High limit] as shown in the following figure. To zoom in the Trend Display, enter a value less than 30 in [High limit] as shown in the following figure.

83 Y Scale Usage This feature is only available for cmt Series. The scale along the Y axis of a specific channel can be displayed. To enable Y Scale, [Grid] should first be enabled in [Trend] tab.

90 Data Block Display Overview Data Block is a combination of several word devices with continuous address, where the X axis of Data Block Display object represents the address and the numbers on the Y axis represent the data values in the corresponding address. Data Block Display object can display multiple data blocks. For example, it can display two data blocks LW-12~LW-15 and RW-12~RW-15 in trend curves simultaneously. It is very useful to observe and compare the difference of trend curves Configuration The display result Click the Data Block Display icon on the toolbar to open the property dialog box. Set up the properties, press OK button, and a new Data Block Display object will be created.

91 13-91 General Tab Setting Comment No. of channel Cursor Line Channel Control address Description Description of the object. Set the no of channel for this object. Each channel represents one data block. The maximal number of channels is 12. If enabled, when user touches the [Data Block Display] object, it will display a vertical cursor line on it, and store the data on the line to the designated registers. See Example 1. Select the channel to be configured. Specify the control address also the data source. Control address is used to control and clear the drawn curve. After executing the operation below, the system will reset the control word to zero. Enter 0 = No action (default) Enter 1 = Draw (Without clear first) Enter 2 = Clear Enter 3 = Redraw No. of data address If control address is LW-n, then LW-n+1 stores the number of word

92 13-92 Limit devices in each data block, i.e. the number of data. The maximum value is Data storage start address If [Offset to start address] is enabled, the [Offset value storage address] will be set as [Control address] + 2. If select 16-bit data format, the address for each data will be start address, start address + 1, start address + 2 and so on. If select 32-bit data format, the address for each data will be start address, start address + 2, start address + 4 and so on. For more information about control address, see Example 2 to 5. Set the minimum and maximum limit for the curve. Note The system can draw at most N curves, where N = 32 divided by the number of channel. Example 1 How to use watch (Cursor Line) feature Use Watch function to check the value of any point of the curve. When the user touches *Data Block+ object, it will display a cursor line, and the system will write the index and value of that data on the cursor line to the designated address. Data Format Index Value Channel 1 Value Channel 2 Value 16-bit Address Address + 1 Address bit Address Address + 2 Address + 4 When watch address is set to LW-n, the value written into LW-n represents the channel index number to be called up. (Start form 0) Note [Data Index] is a 16 bit unsigned integer. When the designated register of cursor line is 32 bit device, it will be stored in the bit If the channel to be viewed has no data, 0 will be displayed, as shown below. In the example, there is no data in channel 1, when the cursor points at Data 4, 0 will be displayed as shown below.

93 13-93 If there is less data in Channel 1, 0 will be displayed, as shown below. Example 2 How to show a data block 1. Write the number of data to *No. of data address+, i.e. Control address+1 2. Store the data consecutively beginning at [Data storage start address]. 3. Write 1 to [Control address] to draw the curve without cleaning the plot. All previous curves will not be erased. 4. The system will write 0 to [Control address] after marking the plot. Note Do not change the content of [Control address], [No. of data address] and [Data storage start address] between step 3 and step 4 above as doing so might cause error for the trend curve plot.

94 13-94 Example 3 How to clear the graph 1. Write 2 to [Control address], all the trend curves will be cleared. 2. The system will write 0 to [Control address] after the trend curve is cleared. Example 4 How to clear the previous trend curve and display new one 1. Write the number of data to [No. of data address+, i.e. control address+1 2. Store the data consecutively beginning at [Data storage start address]. 3. Write 3 to [Control address], the previous trend curves will be cleared and the new content in data block will be plotted on the screen. 4. The system will write 0 to [Control address] after the trend curve has been plotted. Example 5 How to use offset mode If [Offset to start address] is selected, [Control address], [No. of data address], and [Offset value storage address] will use 3 consecutive addresses. For example, assume the total number of channels is 3 (start from 0 to 2), and the [Control address] are LW-0, LW-100, and LW-200, respectively. Then, the other addresses will be set as follows: (In the example, format 16-bit Unsigned is used and [Offset value storage address] are all m).

95 13-95 Item Channel 0 Channel 1 Channel 2 Control Address LW-0 LW-100 LW-200 No. of data LW-1 LW-101 LW-201 address Offset value LW-2 (=m) LW-102 (=m) LW-202 (=m) storage address Data 1 LW-0+m LW-100+m LW-200+m Data 2 LW-1+m LW-101+m LW-201+m The following figure on the left shows the result when offset mode is not used while the figure on the right shows the result when offset mode is used. Note When [Control address] is set to LW-n, [No. of data address] and [Offset value storage address] are as follows: Data Type 16-bit 32-bit Control address LW-n LW-n No. of data address LW-n+1 LW-n+2 Offset value storage address LW-n+2 LW-n+4 If the control registers are 32-bit devices, only bit 0-15 will be used for control purpose, bit will be ignored. (as illustrated below) When the value in [Control address] is not zero, the system will read [No. on data address] and [Offset value storage address]. It is recommended to use [Offset to start address] for data block display with multiple channels and the same device type. As shown in the following figure, The control words of

96 13-96 channel 1 is located from LW-n, the control words of channel 2 is located from LW-n+3, and so on. Display Area Setting Description Description Data samples Configure the maximal number of data samples (points) to be displayed.

No. of channels Control address Channel Read Address Dynamic limits Set the number of channels for observation. Controls the operation of all channels simultaneously. When the [Control address] is LW-n, assigning values to LW-n will issue commands to XY plot according to the table below. Meanwhile, LW-n+1 l controls the number of data points plotted. After operation, the [Control address] will be reset to 0. Control Value Result address LW-n 1 Plots point on XY curve. (The plotted points are kept.) 2 Clears all XY curves. 3 Clears then plots new XY curve. LW-n+1 Any number Controls the number of data points plotted. No. of data address Controls the number of data points. Each channel can plot up to 1023 points. Select a channel to configure. PLC name Select a PLC which will be the source of [X data] and [Y data] and designate a read address. The format of the data register blocks used for the display channels depends on whether [Separated address for X and Y data] and/or [Dynamic limits] has been selected. See Example 1. When not selected (See Example 2) The Low and High limits can be set by entering constants. The Low and High limits are used for calculating X and Y range in percentage. When selected (See Example 3) A zoom effect can be created by changing the Low / High Limits.

101 Example 3 If [Dynamic limits] is selected, a zoom effect can be created by changing the setting of Low / High Limits. In the following example, XL=X low limit, XH=X high limit, YL=Y low limit, YH=Y high limit, and XY, XY1, XY2 are three XY data. When changing the high limits of X and Y axis, the result is shown below: Original Change the high limit of Y axis to 25. (zoom in) Change the high limit of Y axis to 100 (zoom out) For more information, see Trend Display. Note For cmt Series, on the screen of the visualization device directly pinch two fingers together to zoom out or spread them apart to zoom in. X and Y data can be set to different formats. For example: If X data uses 16-bit unsigned, Y data uses 32-bit signed, please note the address setting. When using a Tag PLC, such as AB tag PLC, X and Y must be in the same format. When using different formats a warning will be shown.

102 Display Area Tab Setting Profile color Curve Maker Description Select the color of the frame and the background, or select [Transparent] check box to hide the frame and background. For each channel select the properties of color, width, and line style. There are four different types of XY plot. The result is shown below:

126 Data Transfer Overview Data Transfer object is similar to Trigger-based Data Transfer object. They transfer the data from source to destination register. The difference is that Data Transfer object transfers data based on time schedule, and is able to transfer data in bits. When using cmt Series, Data Transfer object is divided into two modes: [Time-based] and [Bit trigger]. In these two modes, the system automatically detects the state of the designated bit register and executes data transfer. [Time-based] mode is the same as described earlier, where [Bit trigger] mode transfers data when the state of the designated bit register changes. For the detail of [Bit trigger] mode, see Data Transfer Bit Trigger Configuration Click Data Transfer icon on the toolbar to open the Data Transfer management dialog box. Click [New] and configure the properties. All the defined Data Transfer can be viewed from the dialog box as shown in the following figure. emt, ie, XE, mtv Series cmt Series

127 Data Transfer Time-based General Tab Click the [New] button in the Data Transfer management dialog box. Setting Attribute Source address Description Address type Select the data type, either [Bit] or [Word]. No. of bits /No. of words When [Bit] is selected in [Address type], set the number of bits transferred each time when data transfer is triggered. When [Word] is selected in [Address type], set the number of words transferred each time when data transfer is triggered. Interval Select the time interval of data transfer, for example, when 3 seconds is set, the system will transfer data every 3 seconds. Specifying a short time interval or a big number of data to transfer may cause an overall performance of system decrease. Therefore, it is recommended that users choose a longer time interval and a smaller amount of data to transfer. When a short interval is inevitable, be aware of the interval must be longer than the data transfer operation. For example, if the data transfer operation takes 2 seconds, set the interval longer than 2 seconds. Data Transfer object reads the data from [Source Address].

128 Destination address Data Transfer object writes the data to [Destination Address] Data Transfer Bit Trigger General Tab Click the [New] button in the Data Transfer management dialog box, and open [Bit trigger] tab. Setting Source address Destination address No. of word Trigger address Description Data Transfer object reads the data from [Source Address]. Data Transfer object writes the data to [Destination Address]. Set the number of words transferred each time when data transfer is triggered. Set the register that controls data transfer and select the trigger mode. Trigger mode Trigger data transfer when the state of the designated register changes from Off to ON, ON to OFF, or at both of the changes of state.

129 PLC Control Overview PLC Control object can execute commands when it is triggered Configuration Click the PLC Control icon on the toolbar to open the PLC Control Object management dialog box. To add a PLC Control object, click [New], set up the properties, press OK button and a new PLC Control object will be created. Click [New] and the following dialog box appears. See Type of Control. Note The [PLC Control] and [Backlight Control] options are not available for cmt Series.

130 Type of Control Change window Setting Active only when designated window opened Turn on back light Clear data after window changed Use window no. offset Description Allow this operation only if a particular screen is displayed. The backlight is turned ON when the window object is changed. (Not available for cmt Series) Reset the value at trigger address to zero when the window object is changed. Select the check box and select a window offset, the new window no. to change to will be the value in [Trigger address] plus the offset. For example, if [Trigger address] is LW-0 and offset is set to -10. When the value in LW-0 is 25, the system will change to window no. 15 (25-10=15). The range of the offset is to The [Clear data after window changed] check box is not available if [Use window no. offset] is selected. Note If [LB-9017] is set ON, the write-back function will be disabled, the new window number is not written back into a designated address. Place a valid window number in the designated trigger address to change the base screen to the new window number. The new window number is written back into the designated address. For example, if current window is window no. 10, and [Trigger address] is set to LW-0, When LW-0 is changed to 11, the system will change the current window to window no. 11,

131 and then write 11 to LW-1. When the window is changed, the new window number is written back into the address that is calculated by [Trigger address] and the data format, as shown in following table. Data Format Trigger address Write address 16-bit BCD Address Address bit BCD Address Address bit Unsigned Address Address bit Signed Address Address bit Unsigned Address Address bit Signed Address Address + 2 Write data to PLC (current base window) Each time the base window is changed, the new window number will be written into the [Trigger address]. General PLC Control (emt, ie, XE, mtv) Transfer word data blocks from PLC to HMI, and vise-versa, and the transfer direction is controlled by the value in the [Trigger address]. Value in Action [Trigger address] 1 Transfer data from PLC register HMI RW register 2 Transfer data from PLC register HMI LW register 3 Transfer data from HMI RW register PLC register 4 Transfer data from HMI LW register PLC register Four consecutive word registers are used as described in the following table: Address Purpose Description [Trigger address] Determine the direction of data transfer The valid values are listed in the above table. When a new control code is written into the register, HMI will start to transfer. After data transfer is finished, the value will be set to 0. [Trigger The size of data The unit is word. address] +1 to transfer. [Trigger address] +2 Offset to the start address of PLC register Assume the value is n, where n is an arbitrary number, the start address of PLC register is [Trigger

132 [Trigger address] +3 Offset to the start address of LW or RW memory in HMI address n]. Take an OMRON PLC as an example: If [Trigger address] uses DM-100, [Trigger address + 2] will be DM-102. If the value in DM-102 is 5, the start address of data source would be DM-109 ( = 109). Take OMRON PLC as an example: If set [Trigger address] to DM-100, [Trigger address + 3] will be DM-103. If the value in DM-103 is 100, the start address of memory in HMI is RW-100 or LW-100. Example 1 To use PLC Control object to transfer 16 words data in OMRON PLC, starting from address DM-100, to the HMI address, starting from RW-200. The setting is shown below: 1. Firstly, create a PLC Control object, set [Type of control] to [General PLC control], and set [Trigger address] to DM-10, that is, to use the four sequential registers start from DM-10 to control data transfer. 2. Confirm the data size and the offset addresses. Set DM-11 to 16, since the number of words to transfer is 16 words. Set DM-12 to 86, which indicates the address of data source is DM-100 (100= ). Set DM-13 to 200, which indicates the destination address is RW Set DM-10 according to the direction of data transfer. If set DM-10 to 1, the data will be transferred from PLC to HMI RW register, If set DM-10 to 3, the data will be transferred from HMI RW register to PLC. Back light control (write back) (emt, ie, XE, mtv) When [Trigger address] is turned ON, HMI backlight will be turned ON/OFF and [Trigger address] will be turned OFF. Any touch on the screen will turn the backlight on. Back light control (emt, ie, XE, mtv) When [Trigger address] is turned ON, HMI backlight will turn ON/OFF and the state of [Trigger address] will not be changed.

133 Sound control When the state of the designated [Trigger address] changes, the HMI will play the sound selected from the sound library. There is a further selection determines whether the sound is played after Off to ON, ON to OFF transition, or at both of the changes of state. Execute macro program Select a pre-defined Macro from the drop-down list. When the state of the designated [Trigger address] changes, the selected Macro is executed. There is a further selection determines whether the Macro is executed after Off to ON, ON to OFF transition, or at both of the changes of state. If select [Always active when ON], the macro will be executed repeatedly. (The shortest time interval between runs is 0.5 second.) Screen hardcopy When the state of the designated [Trigger address] changes, print the selected screen. There is a further selection determines whether the screen is printed after Off to ON, ON to OFF transition, or at both of the changes of state. There are three options to specify the source window for hardcopy: Current base window Print the base window at the time the operation is activated. Window no. from register Print the window designated by the value in a designated address. If the window number is valid, the screen is printed. Designate window no. Directly select a base window to be printed. If not specifying any printer, there are other options such as SD card or USB disk. The printer can be set in [System Parameter Settings]» [Model] tab. Note The [Printer] setting is not available for cmt Series. The window hardcopy file is saved in ipad Photo folder. A background printing procedure is performed when the printed window is not the current base window. If the hard-copied window is not the current base window, its [Direct Window] and [Indirect Window] objects will not be printed.

134 Scheduler Overview Scheduler object turns bits ON/OFF, or writes values to word registers at designated start times. It works on a weekly basis Configuration Click the Scheduler icon on the toolbar to open the Scheduler management dialog box, click [New] to open the Scheduler property setting dialog box. The following two demonstrations explain the usage of Scheduler. Example 1 A motor is scheduled to power - ON at 9:00 and power OFF at 18:00, Monday to Friday. We are using LB-100 to control the motor state. LB-100 will be set ON at 9:00 and OFF at 18: Click the Scheduler icon on the toolbar to open the Scheduler management dialog box, click [New]. 2. In [General] tab, select [Bit ON] in [Action mode] and set [Action address] to LB In [Time Set] tab, select [Constant].

135 Enter [Start] time as 9:00:00 and select Monday to Friday. Do not select [Setting on individual day]. 5. Enter [End] time as 18:00:00 and select [Enable termination action] check box. 6. Click [OK], a new Scheduler object will be created on the [Scheduler] list. Example 2 A thermal heater is scheduled to heat up to 90 C at 08:00 and cool down to 30 C at 17:00, Monday to Friday. LW-100 is used to store the set point value. 1. Click the Scheduler icon on the toolbar to open the Scheduler management dialog box, click [New]. 2. In [General] tab, select [Word write] in [Action mode] and set [Action address] to LW Select [Constant] for [Word write value settings] and enter 90 in [Start value]. 4. In [Time set] tab select [Constant]. 5. Enter [Start] time as 8:00:00 and select Monday to Friday. Do not select [Setting on individual day]. 6. Enter [End] time as 17:00:00 and select [Enable termination action] check box. 7. Return to [General] tab and enter 30 in [End value]. 8. Click [OK], a new schedule object will be created on the [Scheduler] list.

136 General Tab Setting Power ON start/end action Description Execute the defined action when the HMI is powered ON. Enabled When HMI is powered ON within the scheduled time range, the start action will be performed automatically. When HMI is powered ON outside the scheduled time range, the termination action will be executed. Disabled When the HMI is powered ON at a time later than the start time, the start action will not be performed, but the termination action will be performed. When the termination action is not defined, the scheduled range is not recognized and no action is performed.

137 Action mode Choose the action to do at the given time. Bit ON At the start time, set the designated bit ON. At the end time, set the designated bit OFF. Example: Start time : 09:00:00 End time : 17:00:00 Bit OFF At the start time, set the designated bit OFF. At the end time, set the designated bit ON. Example: Start time : 09:00:00 End time : 17:00:00 Word write The [Write start value] entered here is transferred to the designated [Action address] word register at the start time. At end time, the [Write end value] entered here is written to the [Action address]. The valued can be entered manually or be set by using [Address] mode. In [Address] mode, the value in the specified address is the start value where the value in [Address + 1] is the end value. Example: Device address: LW-100 Start time: 09:00:00 End time: 17:00:00 Write start value: 10 Write end value: 0 Use register: If control address is LW-n, then enter 10 in LW-n and enter 0 in LW-(n+1).

138 Note Only is an [End time] is set in the [Time set] tab will the [Write end value] box appear. Time Set Specify start time and end time. [Constant] allows specifying a date or period and time. [Address] allows controlling the time by the designated address. Constant Setting on individual day If [Setting on individual day] is selected The same start time and end time can be assigned to different days of the week.

139 Note Start and end time must be entered. Start and end time must be on a different time, or same time but different day. If [Setting on individual day] is not selected Start time and end time entered must start and end within 24-hours. Note Start time and end time must be on a different time, different day. If an end time is earlier than a start time, the end action will occur in the next day. Address The scheduler object retrieves the start/end time and day of week information from word registers, enabling all parameters to be set and changed under PLC or user control. Designated as the top address in a block of 11 sequential registers which are used to store time setting data. The format of the 11 word registers should normally be 16-unsigned integer. If a 32-bit word address is chosen, only bits 0-15 are effective, and bits should be written as zero. The following describes each register. Control (Time setting address + 0) When [Control] bit is ON, the HMI will read and update [Action mode], [Start time], and [End time] values.

140 Note HMI will not regularly read the data from [Action mode] (address + 2) to [End time] (address + 10). Please turn [Control] ON when the settings are changed. Status (Time setting address + 1) When the read operation is completed, Bit00 of this register turns ON. If time data read is out of range or incorrect in any way Bit01 turns ON. Note After the scheduler reads the data and the status is turned ON (The value in [Address + 1] = 01), the control bit must be turned OFF (address = 0). The status bit and error bit will be turned OFF (1 0) at the same time.

141 Action mode (Time setting address + 2) Enable/disable [Enable termination action] and [Setting on individual day]. Whatever the [Enable termination action] bit is, all the time data, from [Control] to [End time (second)], will be read. Note If [Enable termination action] is OFF, all 11 registers are still read but end time is ignored. If [Setting on individual day] is ON, make sure that all start end times are entered. If more than one start / end day bit is ON, and error will occur. Start/End Day (Start Day: Time setting address + 3, End Day: Time setting address + 7) Designates which day of week is used to trigger the start or end action. Start/End Time (Start Time: Time setting address + 4 to + 6, End Time: Time setting address + 8 to + 10) Hour: 0 23 Minute: 0 59 Second: 0-59 Values outside these ranges will cause error. Note 16-bit unsigned integer format must be used; BCD format is not supported here. End time depends on [Action mode] (address + 2). [Enable termination action] (Bit 00) and [Setting individual day] (Bit 01) are related:

142 Prohibit tab Before the scheduled action is performed, the HMI will read the specified bit state. If it is ON, the scheduled start/end action will be skipped. Otherwise, it will be performed normally. Note Up to 32 scheduler objects are allowed. A time schedule applies one action only when the start time is reached. [Write start/end value] and [Prohibit] bit is read only once before start action. After that, even to change the state of [Prohibit] bit or [Write start/end value], the end action and the value written will not be affected. Also, to read data of [Write start/end value] and [Prohibit] bit, there is a delay of start action due to the communication. Each time RTC data is changed, scheduler list entries that possess both start and end times will be checked for in-range or out-range conditions. For in-range, the start action will occur. If the end action is not set, the new range is not recognized, the action will not occur. If several Scheduler objects are set to the same start time or end time, the action is performed in ascending order of the schedule number. In [Time Set]» [Address] mode, the system will read [Control] word regularly. The length of the period depends on the system. In [Time Set]» [Address] mode, when start time and end time is out- range, error occurs in the set action time. (Note: BCD is not an acceptable format) In [Time Set]» [Address] mode, the action will not start up until the first time the time data is successfully updated.

143 Option List Overview Option List object displays a list of items that the user can view and select. Once the user selects an item, the corresponding data will be written to a word register. There are two forms of this object [List box] and [Drop-down list]. The [List box] lists all items and highlights the selected one. The [Drop-down list] normally displays only the selected item. Once the object is pressed, the system will display a list (which is similar to list box) as shown in the following figure Configuration Click the Option List icon on the toolbar to open an Option List object property dialog box. Set up the properties, press OK button, and a new Option List object will be created.

144 General Tab Setting Attribute Monitor address Description Mode: The list style, either [List box] or [Drop-down list]. Item no.: Set the number of items for the object. Each item represents a state displayed in the list and the corresponding value will be written to the [Monitor address]. Background: Set background color. Selection: Set background color for the selected item. Source of item data: There are 4 sources available: [Predefine], [Dates of historical data], [Item address], and [User account]. See The corresponding value of the selected item will be written to [Monitor address]. Write when button is released If this check box is selected, the selected item value will be written to [Monitor address] after the button is released.

145 Send notification after writing successfully Set On/Off the designated bit address after successfully writing data to PLC. Note For cmt Series, the [Dates of historical data] and the [write when button is released] selections are not available Source of item data Predefine The list is manually defined in [Mapping] tab. The number of items can be adjusted by [Item no.], and each item represents one state. Each item has a corresponding value which will be written to [Monitor address]. Dates of historical data This selection is not available for cmt Series. Option List object can be used with historical data display objects, such as Trend Display object, History Data Display object and Event Display object to control which history file should be shown. The figure below is an example of Option List used with Trend Display.

146 Setting Type Date Data Sampling object Description Two options are available: [Event (Alarm) log] and [Data sampling]. Set the date format. YYYY means a four digits year (EX: 2012), YY means a two digits year (EX: 12), MM means month and DD means day. Select which Data Sampling object is displayed when [Type] is [Data Sampling], and it should be the same as the [Data sampling object index] configured in [Trend Display] or [History Data Display]. Note In [Dates of historical data] mode, since the system automatically reads the historical data and finds the date information, it is not necessary to configure in the [Mapping] tab. The error message displayed in Option List can be modified in [Mapping] tab. Item address The list will be read from the given [Item address] and controlled by [Control address]. The following options will be available:

147 Setting Control address Item address Description [Address]: If the value at this address is changed to 1, the option list would be replaced by items defined at [Item address]. After updating, the value will be restored to 0. [Address + 1]: Define the number of items in [Item address]. Assign the item address UNICODE The item will use UNICODE characters, such as Chinese characters. The length of each item Define the number of letters for each item, the unit is Word. Note The UNICODE characters used here should be used by Text object, so that EasyBuilder Pro will compile the needed fonts and download these fonts to HMI, then the UNICODE letters can be correctly displayed. [The number of items] multiplied by [The Length of each item] must be less than 1024 words. The system automatically disables [Mapping] tab in [Item address] mode. User account If [Enhanced Security] mode is enabled, [User account] would appear in the [Source of item data] and it lists the names of users. Setting Sort Display Description Select the sorting method from [Ascending] of [Descending]. If [Privilege] is selected, the privileges for each user will be displayed in option list. If [Secret user] is selected, even though it is defined to be hidden in [System parameter settings]» [Security]» [Enhanced Security], the users will still be displayed in [Option List].

148 Note The address that controls user index is [Control Address +2 (LW-n+2)] which is set in [System Parameters]» [Security]» [Enhanced Security]. Mapping Tab This table displays all available states/items, their item data and values. To change the number of available items, please go to [Option list tab]» [Attribute]» [Item no.]. Setting Item Value Item data Import item data from recipe record Description The system lists all available items. Each item represents a state that will be displayed in the list. This field is read-only. Here user can assign value for each item, basing on the following two criteria: For reading: If the value in [Monitor address] is changed, the object selects the first-matched item. If no item is matched, the status goes to error state and signals the notification bit register (if requested). For writing: The system writes this value to [Monitor address] when user selects an item. Text displayed for each item. The Option List object displays the text of all items in the list for users to review and select. This feature is enabled when select [Recipe-Selection] as [Monitor address]. Click [Import item data from recipe record] to open the [Recipe Records] setting dialog box. Select [Item data source], the data belonging to the selected column will all be imported to Option List object.

149 Error state Set default Error notification Before importing, the number of items in Option List changes according to the number of items defined in Recipe Records. After importing, modifying Recipe Records will not change the content of Option List. On error state, the list box removes the highlight to represent no item is selected and the drop-down list displays the data of error state. Only the drop-down list uses error state, list box is not able to use error state. For example, item number 8 is the error state when specifying 8 in [Item no.]. (The first item number is 0) Reset all values or states to default. That is, set 0 for item 0, 1 for item 1, and so on. The system will set ON/OFF to the specified bit register when error is detected. The signal of the bit register could be used to trigger a procedure for correcting the error by using objects such as Event Log, Alarm Bar, or pop-up window.

System Method Analog video The longest period can be set from 10 system seconds before triggering [Capture address] to 10 seconds after triggering. The time interval of image capturing is once every second. The captured.jpg file will be named in the following format: Before or after [Capture address] is triggered: YYYYMMDDhhmmss.jpg The moment that [Capture address] is triggered: For example, set [Record time+ Before and After to 5 seconds. When the state of [Capture address] changes from OFF to ON, the system will start capturing one image per second, from 5 seconds before the triggering time to 5 seconds after the triggering time, which is 11 images in total including the one captured at the triggering moment.

156 Control address USB Camera Use control function Only the image of the triggering moment is captured. The name format: YYYYMMDDhhmmss.png. If enabled, enter certain value to the control address and the following addresses can control Video Input object. For example, if the designated control address is LW-n (n is any address), enter certain value to the designated addresses will execute commands as the following table. Address Value Command LW-n 0 Stop displaying image 1 Open channel 1 and display the image on HMI 2 Open channel 2 and display the image on HMI 3 Open channel 1 but don t display the image on HMI (Capture function operable) 4 Open channel 2 but don t display the image on HMI (Capture function operable) LW-n+1 1 Pause / resume the video LW-n+2 1~100 Adjust the contrast ratio (Analog video systems) LW-n+3 1~100 Adjust the brightness (Analog video systems) After changing the value in [Control address (LW-n)], the system will keep the new value. After changing the value in [Control address + 1 (LW-n+1)], the system will execute the command and then reset the value to 0. If [Use control function] check box is not selected, the system will play the image of the selected channel. If [Display adjustment] check box is selected, the contrast ratio and brightness can be adjusted. (Analog video systems) The USB Camera is controlled by LW-n (value 0 or 1) and LW-n+1.

157 Note Only one channel can be opened at a time. Real-time images can still be captured when Video In is paused. Recommended analog video systems and resolutions: 1:1 50% NTSC 720 x x 240 PAL 720 x x 288 If the USB Camera is removed during video playing, the image will not be loaded even though the USB Camera is returned. If [Control address] is selected, please stop and then restart video input. If [Control address] is not selected, please switch to another screen and then return, or restart HMI. When using USB Camera, the maximum size of Video In object is 572x430. When using USB Camera, the resolution of the run-time video image is determined by the resolution supported by the USB Camera that is closest to the size of Video In object.

When a negative value is entered, the blocks flow in a reversed direction. Setting Displays the address and format of the designated register. [System register], [Index register], and [Tag Library] can be set here. 25 flow speed levels, the valid range is 0 to 25 when [Dynamic speed] is not selected. A larger value indicates a faster speed. Outline Tab For setting the outline property of Flow Block. The following illustration shows each item. Setting Pipe Description Sets the properties of the pipe within which the blocks flow. The background color, border width and color can be set. When the [Border] check box is selected, the background color must be set.

167 Block Sets the properties of blocks. Width, length, interval and color can be set here. Note If both [Reverse direction] and [Dynamic speed] check boxes are selected in [General] tab, when entering a negative value in the designated register of dynamic speed, the blocks flow in the direction the object is drawn. To avoid the pipe lines from overlapping when drawing a turn, there is a minimum width planned at each turn. As shown in Fig. 34.1, the sign on the cross cursor defines the minimum width. Fig demonstrates that each turn is drawn in the minimum width. (Fig. 34.1) (Fig. 34.2) The valid range of the length, width, and height of the Flow Block can be adjusted according to the size of the object drawn and the size of the window. As shown in the following figure, when the size of the Flow Block is larger, the valid range is restricted to prevent the flow block from exceeding the window size. When the size of the object is smaller, the adjustment range will be larger. To prevent the flow block from overlapping itself, when the distance between two lines is shorter (Section A), the valid range is restricted. When the distance is longer (Section B), the adjustment range will be larger.

168 Example 1 The demonstration below shows how to use [Dynamic speed] to control the direction and speed of Flow Block by a designated word register. 1. Create a Flow Block object and select [Dynamic speed] check box. Set [Address] to LW-0, and set the format to 16-bit Signed. 2. Create a Numeric Input object, set [Address] to LW-0.

184 Circular Trend Display Overview Circular Trend Display object draws the trend curve of Data Sampling in a polar coordinate system, where y-axis represents the radial coordinate and the x-axis represents the angular coordinate. The way to use this object is similar to using Trend Display object Configureation Click the Circular Trend Display icon on the toolbar to open the property dialog box. Set up the properties, press OK button, and a new Circular Trend Display object will be created.

185 General Tab Setting Data Sampling Type Description Selects the data source for drawing the trend curve. Selects the type of the trend from [Real-time] or [History]. Real-time In this mode, it displays a fixed number of sampling data from the moment HMI starts to present. The number of sampling data is determined by the [Max. data records (real-time mode)] setting of Data Sampling object. If the number of sampling data exceeds this number, the earlier data will not be displayed. To display earlier data or the data in other days, please select [History] mode. [Hold control] address can be used to pause refreshing the display. This only stops displaying new data in the Circular Trend Display object, and the data is still being sampled by

186 Refresh data automatically Data Sampling object. History In this mode, it displays the sampled data sorted by date. Select the data source from [Data Sampling], and then use [History control] address to view the records of different dates. Note If [Show scroll control] check box in Trend Tab is not selected, the earlier data cannot be viewed when exceeding the specified [Distance]. For example: Set [Distance] to 1 (hour.), then sampling data earlier than one hour is not displayed. If enabled, the window in which the Circular Trend Display object (in history mode) is placed will be refreshed every 10 seconds. The scroll controls can be used to check the refresh status. If button is displayed, the Circular Trend Display will be automatically refreshed. If button is displayed, the Circular Trend Display will stop being refreshed. Scrolling backward and viewing earlier data will disable [Refresh data automatically]. The button displayed is at this moment. If [Refresh data automatically] is selected, the display is refreshed when change back to this window, regardless of the use of scroll controls. Example: If [Refresh data automatically] is selected, scrolling to the earlier display stops auto-refresh. At this moment change to another window and then change back, the Circular Trend Display is still refreshed. If [Refresh data automatically] is not enabled when building the project, to enable it directly on HMI, simply press. Please note that auto-refresh remains disabled after window change.

187 Distance Start position Defines the time length that the circle represents, the unit is hour, the range is 1 to 24 (hours). The position from where to start drawing the trend curve. (Up) (Right) (Down) (Left) Dynamic X-axis time range Zoom in / out Hold control History control If selected, a word register can be designated to control the time length of Circular Trend Display. The unit is hour. If no value is entered, the distance is set to default. Enlarge or reduce the size of the object. The maximum size is 10 times larger. If 0 is entered in the designated register, the effect equals entering 1, the object remains the original size. When the register is set ON, suspend the update of Circular Trend Display. It does not stop the sampling process of Data Sampling object. This setting is available only in Real-time mode. History data is sorted by date. The system uses [History control] to select the history data that are created in different dates and then displays it by Circular Trend Display object. If the value of the designated register in [History control] is 0, the Circular Trend Display object displays the latest

188 Watch line Time stamp output record. If the value is 1, the second latest record is displayed and so on. This setting is available only in History mode. If use with Option List object and select data source as [Dates of historical data], the history data will be sorted by date and displayed in Option List object, see Option List. In the following example, when history control address is set to LW-0, and there are 4 sampling data: dtl, dtl, dtl, dtl. The corresponding data selected by the value in history control address is as the following list. Value in LW-0 The sampling data displayed dtl dtl dtl dtl Displays a watch line when user touches the Circular Trend Display object, and the sampling data at the position of the watch line is output to the designated register. To display sampling data with multiple channels, the system consecutively writes the data of each channel to the designated word register and the following registers. If the data format of each channel is different, the channels are sorted by the data format of its corresponding register. In the following example, when watch address is set to LW-0, and there are 4 sampling data, the format of each data is: 16-bit Unsigned, 32-bit Unsigned, 32bit Signed, and 16-bit Signed. The corresponding watch address is as the following list. Channel Data Format Data Length Watch Address 0 16-bit Unsigned 1 Word LW bit Unsigned 2 Words LW bit Signed 2 Words LW bit Signed 1 Word LW-5 If selected, the system will start counting time from the first data sampled, and output the elapsed time counted of

189 the latest data sampled to the register designated in [Time stamp output + 2]. When pressing a point on the trend curve, the relative time of the nearest data sample is then output to [Time stamp output address]. Note The format of the register designated in [Time stamp output] and [Time stamp output + 2] must be 32-bit. [Time stamp output + 2] is only available for Real-time mode while [Time stamp output] is available for Real time mode and History mode. Trend Tab

190 Setting Profile Grid Description Frame Sets the color of the frame of the object. Background Sets the color of the background of the object. Show scroll controls The scroll controls are displayed for scrolling to view the sampling data of other time range. The minimum scrolling unit is determined by the setting of [Distance] in General tab. If [Show scroll controls] check box is not selected, the earlier data cannot be viewed when exceeding the specified [Distance]. For example: Set [Distance] to 1 (hour.), then sampling data earlier than one hour is not displayed. Sets the number and the color of the dividing lines. Y-axis Sets the number of divisions on Y axis. Font size Sets the size of the font which labels the time scale or channel scale. Time scale If enabled, displays the time scale. When the time length is longer than 1 hour, the scale division is 1 hour. When the time length is set to 1 hour, the scale

191 Time / Date division is 15 minutes. Channel scale If enabled, displays the channel scale. The color of the font which labels the channel scale corresponds to the setting of the trend curve of each channel. Time Sets the display format of time. Date Sets the display format of date. Channel Tab Setting Channel Description Sets the style and the color of the trend curve, and the upper and lower limit of data that can be drawn on the trend curve.
